Reviewer: SamDumont - - January 20, 2022
Subject: Poorly researched- not credible

Very poorly researched work.
Full of errors.
A few examples:
When Bhattoji Dixita came to south, YagnaNarayana Dixit is mentioned as minister of Raghunatha Nayaka of Tanjavur. Actually Govinda Dixit was the minister.
Regarding BrihatKatha, Gunadhya is placed on pedestal same as Valmiki and Vyasa which is outrageous. The source of the research seems to be from western Indological sources which lack Indian ethos and poor knowledge of Sanskrit.

Reviewer: Avdhoot108 - - July 27, 2020
Subject: Bad

This book is another western-oriented indologist crap that views sanskrit texts through lens of modern Marxist ideology and insults Vedic religion by calling it "Brahmanism", a name which is only used by hinduphobic academics.

A foundational reference work.
